In Vivo Assessment of Natural Killer Cell Responses during Chronic Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Infection

PLOS ONE, 7(5).

By: R. Simoes n, K. Howard n & G. Dean n

MeSH headings : Animals; Apoptosis; Cats; Cell Proliferation; Female; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / immunology; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / pathogenicity; Immunophenotyping; Killer Cells, Natural / immunology; Lentivirus Infections / immunology; Lentivirus Infections / virology; Leukocytes, Mononuclear / immunology; Male
TL;DR: The failure of the NK cell response against Lm challenge in the draining lymph node of FIV-infected cats correlates with the delayed control and clearance of this opportunistic bacterial pathogen. (via Semantic Scholar)

Acute mucosal pathogenesis of feline immunodeficiency virus is independent of viral dose in vaginally infected cats

RETROVIROLOGY, 7.

By: K. Howard n, S. Reckling n, E. Egan n & G. Dean n

TL;DR: The results indicate that mucosal immune pathogenesis could be used as a rapid indicator of vaccine success or failure when combined with a physiologically relevant low dose mucosal challenge. (via Semantic Scholar)

Basal expression levels of IFNAR and Jak-STAT components are determinants of cell-type-specific differences in cardiac antiviral responses

JOURNAL OF VIROLOGY, 81(24), 13668–13680.

By: J. Zurney*, K. Howard n & B. Sherry n

MeSH headings : Animals; Cells, Cultured; Fibroblasts / immunology; Fibroblasts / virology; Gene Expression Regulation; Humans; Interferon-alpha / genetics; Interferon-alpha / metabolism; Interferon-beta / genetics; Interferon-beta / metabolism; Janus Kinases / genetics; Janus Kinases / metabolism; L Cells; Mammalian orthoreovirus 3 / pathogenicity; Mice; Mice, Knockout; Myocarditis / immunology; Myocarditis / virology; Myocytes, Cardiac / immunology; Myocytes, Cardiac / virology; Orthoreovirus, Mammalian / pathogenicity; Receptor, Interferon alpha-beta / genetics; Receptor, Interferon alpha-beta / metabolism; Reoviridae Infections / immunology; Reoviridae Infections / virology; STAT Transcription Factors / genetics; STAT Transcription Factors / metabolism
TL;DR: It is found that greater basal expression of IFN-β in cardiac myocytes results in greater basal activated nuclear STAT1 and STAT2 and greater basal ISG mRNA expression and provides greater basal antiviral protection relative to cardiac fibroblasts, the first indication of an integrated network of cell-type-specific innate immune components for organ protection.

FIV infection induces unique changes in phenotype and cellularity in the medial iliac lymph node and intestinal IEL

AIDS RESEARCH AND HUMAN RETROVIRUSES, 23(5), 720–728.

By: K. Howard n & M. Burkhard*

MeSH headings : Animals; CD4-Positive T-Lymphocytes / immunology; CD8-Positive T-Lymphocytes / immunology; Cats; Female; Flow Cytometry; Immunity, Mucosal; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline; Intestinal Mucosa / immunology; Intestinal Mucosa / pathology; Lentivirus Infections / immunology; Lentivirus Infections / pathology; Lymph Nodes / immunology; Lymph Nodes / pathology; Male; Phenotype
TL;DR: The findings expand the array of immune alterations induced by lentiviral infection and indicate that characterization of multiple mucosal sites will be necessary to fully understand the pathogenesis of HIV-1 infection. (via Semantic Scholar)

Mucosal challenge with cell-associated or cell-free feline immunodeficiency virus induces rapid and distinctly different patterns of phenotypic change in the mucosal and systemic immune systems

IMMUNOLOGY, 122(4), 571–583.

By: K. Howard n & M. Burkhard*

author keywords: feline immunodeficiency virus; human immunodeficiency virus; immune; mucosa; pathogenesis
MeSH headings : Animals; CD4-Positive T-Lymphocytes / immunology; CD8-Positive T-Lymphocytes / immunology; Cats; Feline Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome / immunology; Female; Immunity, Mucosal; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / immunology; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / pathogenicity; Immunophenotyping; Jejunum / immunology; L-Selectin / metabolism; Lymph Nodes / immunology; Lymphoid Tissue / immunology; Receptors, Complement 3d / metabolism; Vagina
TL;DR: It is found that even at this early time‐point, mucosal exposure to virus induced substantial alterations in the phenotype and distribution of leucocytes, particularly in the tissues of the mucosal immune system, which has substantial implications for HIV‐1 pathogenesis and vaccine development.

Methodology for isolation and phenotypic characterization of feline small intestinal leukocytes

JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGICAL METHODS, 302(1-2), 36–53.

By: K. Howard n, I. Fisher n, G. Dean n & M. Burkhard*

Toll-like receptor expression in feline lymphoid tissues

VETERINARY IMMUNOLOGY AND IMMUNOPATHOLOGY, 106(3-4), 229–237.

By: G. Ignacio n, S. Nordone n, K. Howard n & G. Dean n

author keywords: toll-like receptors; feline; feline immunodeficiency virus; innate immunity
MeSH headings : Animals; Base Sequence; Cat Diseases / genetics; Cat Diseases / immunology; Cats / genetics; Cats / immunology; Cell Line; Cloning, Molecular; DNA Primers / genetics; Gene Expression; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / pathogenicity; Lentivirus Infections / genetics; Lentivirus Infections / immunology; Lentivirus Infections / veterinary; Lymphocyte Subsets / immunology; Lymphoid Tissue / immunology; Membrane Glycoproteins / genetics; Polymerase Chain Reaction / methods; Polymerase Chain Reaction / veterinary; RNA, Messenger / genetics; RNA, Messenger / metabolism; Receptors, Cell Surface / genetics; Tissue Distribution; Toll-Like Receptors
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that tissue distribution of TLRs is associated with the immunological role of a particular tissue, that lymphocytes may also express these 'innate immune' receptors, and that FIV infection can alter TLR expression. (via Semantic Scholar)
